Nainital’s senior superintendent of police Janmejay Khanduri said, "The lady used to pose as a man in terms of looks and enticed women on Facebook and later married them."



The police had stated that Sen, in 2013, had created a fake account on Facebook in the name of Krishna Sen and had posted pictures posing as a man. She chatted with several women on the social network and enticed them.

Sen had gone to Kathgodam in Haldwani to meet a woman she had befriended on Facebook in 2014. She had told her "friend" that she was the son of a CFL bulb businessman from Aligarh, and intended to marry her.

Sen allegedly started beating her “wife” over dowry. The wife's family paid Rs 8.5 lakh which Sen used for setting up of a factory.

Police claim that she had lured another woman from Kaladhungi and had married her in April 2016. The “second wife” is said to have been present at Sen’s first wedding as a guest. The two wives were housed in a rented room in Tikoniya.

Khanduri said, “The girl from Kaladhungi came to know that 'Krishna' was not a man, but was lured to keep silent by promising her money. The girl from Kathgodam lodged a complaint with the Haldwani Police alleging of dowry demands and threats after which the police arrested Sen."

During the questioning, Sen had stated that she had always been a tomboy since childhood and pretended to be a boy. She said that she cut her hair, drove a motorcycle and smoked cigarettes to look like a man.

"After marriage, she did not let her wives look at her body or touch her and used to have a 'fake' physical relationship with them using sex toys," police said.

After the arrest, the police got her medically examined in order to prove that she was a woman.

Police are trying to find the people who posed as Sen's family and went to the girls' homes for the engagements and weddings.
